Natural colours and dyes
This initiative will provide deeper knowledge about colour. Pupils learn the primary colours and see how the secondary colours are obtained. How is colour applied to the fabric? What materials are used? Participants will be asked to recognise and classify plants, animals and other natural resources for dyeing, will practice dyeing and will thus prepare a collection of textile chromatic samples.

Textile-related trades
The activity seeks to educate about the art and profession of dressmaking. Pupils will identify and relate the main professions and responsibilities involved in the production of the garments, and the handcrafted processes used in them. In the workshop, they make a personalised T-shirt, experimenting with colours, shapes and textures.

Follow the thread!
Where does thread come from? How is a fabric created? What are the tools used to create a fabric?

(u)topic silhouettes
NEW
This initiative will take a closer look at the meaning of the term silhouette in order to recognise the transformations experienced by the body depending on the garments covering it. Discovering the actions of garments on corporal forms, understanding their meanings, and distinguishing the qualities of the fabrics used for these purposes, are some of the experiences encompassed by the activity. Completing the itinerary is a workshop where students will create new silhouettes based on an original method created by the surrealists and based on the old pastime Consequences.

A escena
La indumentaria es un poderoso elemento de la cultura material, un espejo que responde al individuo y a la sociedad de cada momento, y que, además de en lo material, permite ahondar en aspectos inmateriales y simbólicos. ¿Qué ocurriría si las ideas, usos o historias que encierran las prendas del museo cobraran vida? Esta actividad plantea explorar el potencial escénico de las prendas y explotar su inspiración y estimulación para crear una breve pieza performativa favoreciendo la capacidad comunicativa y expresiva del cuerpo y el gesto del alumnado.
